Gulfstream Aerospace recently celebrated the wing join, power on and engine mount of its newest mid-cabin jet, the Gulfstream G250.
On June 1, 2009, the twin Honeywell HTF7250G engines, each of which provides 7,445 pounds of thrust, were mounted on the airframe.
“The G250 program major milestones – the fuselage join earlier and now the wing join, power on and engine install – have gone smoothly,” said Pres Henne, senior vice president, Programs, Engineering and Test, Gulfstream. “We are delighted that we are on target for another milestone – the G250’s first flight – later this year.” The G250 offers the largest cabin and the longest range at the fastest speed in the industry’s mid-size class.
